As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

386 White Snake (2)

This little girl clearly had some sort of connection with the snake corpse. She might even be the owner of this place.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Ming said slowly, “I wonder what the test here is?”

“There’s no need to be so reserved. My name is Bai Ling. You can just call me by my name!” The girl in the white dress was unexpectedly cheerful and peaceful. She smiled and said, “Sixty years have passed so slowly. I finally found someone who can talk to me. We can talk about the test later! I’ve already told you my name. You have to tell me your name too. What has happened outside in the past sixty years?” Bai Ling walked up to Jiang Ming and spoke very quickly. She seemed very happy to have someone come here.

Jiang Ming’s gaze moved slightly as he slowly said, “My name is Zhang Shan. Sixty years is a very short period of time in the world of immortal cultivation. There’s nothing special about it.”

A knowing expression flashed across Bai Ling’s face. However, she said in an inexplicable tone, “It sounds very boring. It’s the same as what those people said in the past. However, I still want to go out and take a look. There are many people outside, and many interesting things to see. It must be very beautiful!”

“You can’t get out?” Jiang Ming seemed to be nonchalant as he deduced the girl’s identity and background.

“It’s here.” The girl turned around and pointed at the huge snake corpse behind her. “I’m also trapped here! Only once every sixty years can I activate the power of the snake corpse and see a trace of the world outside. I will bring the leader of the Saint Cultivation Platform here to undergo the test. Those old men and women told me that as long as I encounter a suitable opportunity, I will naturally be able to leave this place. However, they have disappeared for a long time. I have already stayed here for countless years,” Bai Ling mumbled in a daze, as if she was already somewhat numb.

Jiang Ming understood that this girl was indeed closely related to the snake corpse.

Moreover, it seemed that she had a terrifyingly ancient origin. Had she been guarding this place since back when the blessed land of immortal cultivation was still prosperous?

“Alright, let’s begin the test. The test here is very simple. I will maintain the same realm as you. If you fight me, no matter who wins or loses, I will give you a big block of ice!” Bai Ling pointed at the iceberg. “The ice on that mountain is very useful for your cultivation. The stronger your attack, the bigger the block of ice I’ll give you.”

“However, after you lose, you have to accompany me here until the passageway closes. Tell me stories about the outside world!” Bai Ling’s eyes seemed to sparkle when she talked about this matter.

Jiang Ming looked straight into her eyes. Perhaps for thousands of years, this girl had heard countless stories about the outside world. Perhaps she knew more about the world of immortal cultivation than many cultivators outside.

However, to the little girl, it seemed to be meaningless. Even though she had heard thousands of stories, she had never seen the birds outside with her own eyes, nor had she ever felt the breeze outside with her own skin.

“What if I win?” Jiang Ming suddenly smiled. This little girl seemed very confident.

“No one has ever defeated me!” Bai Ling immediately said. “If you can really defeat me, that’s great. It’ll be another thing that has never happened. I like to see things that have never happened!”

Jiang Ming shook his head. For some reason, he suddenly felt sympathy for this little girl. However, he quickly shook his head. Who knew how terrifying the other party’s background was? It was probably not best to sympathize with her.

“In that case, come! I’ll defeat you to make you happy!” Jiang Ming smiled.

“That won’t be easy. I’ll use my full strength!” Bai Ling giggled. She felt that the person she saw this time was different from before.

She looked innocent and cute. However, her attacks were extremely fierce. Her little hands waved lightly, and ice lotuses fell from the sky. In the blink of an eye, they exploded around Jiang Ming, turning into cold blades, slashing at Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming’s expression did not change. His eyes burned brightly.

Ice and fire collided, and a piercing fog rose. The destructive aftershock shot out. Just this aftershock was enough to kill an ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.

The ice lotuses shattered one by one. Before Jiang Ming could catch his breath, a white palm penetrated the fog and pressed against his chest.

The seemingly white palm contained the power of poison. Before it even got close, Jiang Ming felt an obscure destructive power that penetrated through all his spiritual energy, ignoring his Metal Fire Mysterious Art and seeping into his body.

“Amazing!” Jiang Ming could not help but exclaim. With a wave of his hand, such a crafty force actually ignored the spiritual defense and directly attacked his body.

However, Jiang Ming’s strongest point was his physical body.

Jiang Ming shouted and struck out with his palm without retreating. His palm was blood-red, and the blood Qi in his meridians seemed to surge like a huge wave, colliding with the white palm.

Blinding flames shot up into the sky, and the surrounding fog was violently churning. A figure in a white dress immediately shot out, her eyes filled with shock.
